This was a perfect meditation for me. There was a great deal of silence after guidance that was easy to follow. Concentrating on the end point of the breath gave me a way to focus and kept my mind from wondering and wandering.

This was my first time hearing this instructor's meditations and I really enjoyed it. I love his calming British voice and the simplicity of this one, with the majority of the time being space without comments. I thought I preferred more instruction but this made me rethink that because it really gave me the space to really slow my mind and body down while fully concentrating on my breath. I look forward to listening to more of his meditations. Thank you 🙏

Yesterday I did the 15min version of this meditation and absolutely loved it. On the go this morning so 10mins was perfect but I’m going to look for an even longer 20min version because this meditation is brilliant.
